Five of the best … movies
Late at night (15)
(Nisha Ganatra, 2019, United States) 102 minutes
Emma Thompson is at her best as a former talk show host in New York, Katherine Newbury, who desperately needs to update her image quickly, in this familiar but often hilarious comedy in the workplace . Mindy Kaling – who also wrote the screenplay – plays the role of star with an ambitious "stand-up" whose "hiring of diversity" causes a lot of panic in the all-white and all-male writer's room.
Gloria Bell (15)
(Sebastián Lelio, 2018, Chi / United States) 102 minutes
After last year's famous Disobedience bad drama, Gloria shifts Lelio's own hit hit in the television series of 2013, and moves the action from Santiago de Chile to Los Angeles. Julianne Moore portrays the main character, a divorced woman with two grown-up children who accidentally stumbles upon a potential new partner in a bar for singles, in this study of the brilliantly interpreted adult character.
Halston (12A)
(Frédéric Tcheng, 2019, United States) 105 minutes
Halston was once the biggest actor in women's fashion, from modiste to first lady – he created the Jackie O 'hat to become the superstar of Saks Fifth Avenue and Studio 54. This document traces his rise and fall. inflicted, with the testimony of those present and – in the case of former party-goers, Liza Minnelli and Joel Schumacher – probably not all there.
Nice hearts and coronets (U)
(Robert Hamer, 1949, United Kingdom) 102 minutes
While the clash of clbad divisions continues to confuse modern British society, the moment has never been more favorable to revisit this dark comedy like the sky, restored for its 70th anniversary. Dennis Price embodies the son of a disgraced aristocrat who takes revenge on his dead mother by murdering his lineage, all played – even women – by Alec Guinness.
Smart Books (15)
(Olivia Wilde, 2019, United States) 102 minutes
Like Eighth Grade and Support the Girls, Booksmart comes at the right time for women's independent film, with the added bonus of a woman behind the camera. Olivia Wilde's debut is very sweet: a funny and touching comedy about two high school girls who realize that studying hard and having a stronger party is not as exclusive as they thought.

Five of the best … rock & pop
Parklife
Manchester's Parklife, the official start of the festival season, offers a truly stunning selection of the best music, from Solange to Yaeji, via Cardi B, Kaytranada and Christine and the Queens. Or, if none of this is floating in your boat, you can cry in front of Mark Ronson's sad firecrackers, croak with Khalid or have a drink while Chase & Status follows.
Heaton Park, Manchester, Saturday 8 and Sunday 9 June
Tame Impala
Four long years have pbaded since the American rock band Tame Impala released its third album, Currents. Earlier this year, two new songs – Patience's and Borderline's typically widescreen double whammy – suggested they were about to trigger a sequel, but everything went silent again. Nevertheless, there will be enough to keep your mind troubled while we wait.
O2, SE10, Saturday 8; on tour on June 26
Erykah Badu, Jhené Aiko
After having already performed the return of the influential Long Beach-based R & B festival, Smokin 'Grooves, in 2018, two of the most experimental of its kind are coming to the UK for a co-star. We do not know who will do what and when, and if Aiko and Badu will collaborate, it is better to sit down and drop everything.
The O2, SE10, Sunday, June 9
Backstreet Boys
Proving that you should not underestimate nostalgia and choreography with specific tools, the Backstreet Boys recorded their first American No. 1 album in 19 years in January with DNA. He has also been in the Top 10 in the UK, resulting in a new arena tour. Expect a small amount from this collection but obviously only show you when it comes to these clbadic bops and bangers from the early 2000s.
Manchester Arena, Monday 10; SSE Hydro, Glasgow, Friday 14th; on tour on June 18th
MC
Tori Freestone Trio
Tori Freestone's favorite resources – unplugged saxophone, bbad, and drums – may not look like much, but the stories she tells about her trio are extremely eloquent. Alert, improvising, but also subtle singer (she is also a violinist folk), Freestone toured his new trio album, El Mar de Nubes.
Bristol, Saturday 8; Southampton, Sunday 9; Sheffield, Wednesday 12; Newcastle upon Tyne, Thursday the 13th; on tour on June 18th

Three of the best … clbadical concerts
Weimar Berlin: the sound of change
One of the hallmarks of the Esa-Pekka Salonen decade as Principal Conductor of the Philharmonia is its thematic series. The most recent one concerns Germany between the two world wars, especially Berlin during the Weimar Republic. All the usual suspects are represented in both concerts this week. Salonen directs the first, with music by Berg, Hindemith, Weill and Shostakovich, while Thursday's is devoted to the projection of the metropolis of Fritz Lang, the Philharmonie playing the original score of Gottfried Huppertz.
Royal Festival Hall, SE1, Sunday 9th and Thursday 13th June
Fantasio
The third Garsington Opera show celebrates the 200th anniversary of the birth of Jacques Offenbach with the UK's first staging of his comic opera of 1872. Fantasio is a typical mixture of disguise and upset love, with the role of dreamer's principal lover of an inaccessible princess interpreted by a mezzo-soprano. Here is Hanna Hipp, with Jennifer France as princess. It is directed by Martin Duncan; Justin Doyle directs.
Wormsley Estate, High Wycombe High, Friday June 14th to July 20th
Il Paria
The raison d'être of Opera Rara is to revive forgotten operas of the nineteenth century and his latest project is a work of Donizetti. Despite some dramatic flaws, Il Paria (The Outcast) of 1829 was considered the most beautiful work of the composer so far, but it was never really a success and Donizetti recycled some of his music in other operas. Albina Shagimuratova and Celso Albelo lead the cast while Mark Elder conducts the Britten Sinfonia at a concert.
Barbican Hall, EC2, Saturday, June 8

Five of the best … exhibitions
Keith Haring
The city of New York in the 1980s was a huge backdrop for Keith Haring, who created his own graphic language of simplified human figures encrusted in a nightclub that never closed and who has used in all areas, from street art to canvases and posters. His cartoons have influenced the Simpsons animation to Rick and Morty. His optimism raises you.
Tate Liverpool, Friday June 14th to November 10th
Kiss My Genders
The art that challenges fixed and binary identities and explores new ways of seeing our charity arrives at the Hayward in a summer of badual subversion. Joan Jett Blakk, Catherine Opie, Planningtorock, Athi-Patra Ruga and Del LaGrace Volcano are among the most prominent artists.
Hayward Gallery, SE1, Wednesday, June 12 to September 8
Bartolome Bermejo
A red-eyed devil hurts himself at the feet of a Christian warrior in Bermejo's powerful painting, St Michael Triumph Over the Devil. This vision of the holy war was painted in Spain in 1468 during a century of Christian "reconquest". Jews were under increasing pressure to convert while the Spanish Muslim kingdom Al-Andalus was defeated. The art of Bermejo shows the creation of this new imperial and Christian Spain.
The National Gallery, WC2, Wednesday, June 12 to September 29
Summer exhibition 2019
RA's annual show on the good, the bad and, who knows, maybe even the beautiful, had a lift last year when Grayson Perry made it a psychological carnival. The latest album continues its contemporary momentum with Mat Collishaw, Polly Morgan and more, creating a "menagerie" of perverse nature, and pillars such as Anselm Kiefer and Tracey Emin among less famous names.
Royal Academy of Arts, W1, Monday June 10th to August 12th
NOW: Anya Gallaccio
Gallaccio uses nature to make sculptures, bringing flowers, trees, wax and ice to the gallery. It is a very 21st century representative of an organic and ecological artistic style that began with the arte povera movement in Italy in the 1960s. This study of the current art scene also shows images of natural processes in the works of Roger Hiorns and Charles Avery.
Scottish National Gallery of Modern Art, Edinburgh, until September 22

Five of the best … theater shows
Sweat
Book your tickets in advance: award-winning Lynn Nottage Pulitzer, directed by Lynette Linton, transfers to the West End for only 50 shows. Settled in Pennsylvania between 2000 and 2008, Sweat explores the impact of deindustrialization on corporate worker friends, with a cast including Martha Plimpton. The play is based on two years of interviews and sounds loud.
Gielgud Theater, W1, to July 20
Bitter wheat
Who is ready for the world premiere of a play by David Mamet on a depraved Hollywood mogul, Harvey Weinstein? I do not admit that sounds very attractive, but Mamet's scabrous mind could work very well in this context. The big draw, of course, is John Malkovich, who returns to the West End after a 30-year break. Mamet himself runs.
Garrick Theater, WC2, until September 21st
A lot
David Hare's play is a bit similar to Hedda Gabler: the years of the Second World War. The action takes place around Susan Traherne, a former secret agent who can not find her place in a peaceful England; a safe, meaningless world or, for most women in Britain, a meaningful job. Rachael Stirling plays the lead role. Cate Blanchett, Rachel Weisz and Meryl Streep have already taken a gigantic share.
Chichester Festival Theater, until June 29
Pope
In 2013, Pope Benedict XVI resigned – an unprecedented gesture that shook the world. The surprise substitute of the archivist? Cardinal Bergoglio, a football-loving reformer, dancing tango. What motivated this changing of the guard and what could it mean for the future of the church? James Dacre conducts Anton Lesser and Nicholas Woodeson in a new play by Anthony McCarten, author of the movie Bohemian Rhapsody.
Royal & Derngate: The Royal, Northampton, Saturday June 8th to 22nd
Hobson's Choice
Harold Brighouse's popular comedy has been brilliantly adapted by Tanika Gupta. The action was moved to the 1980s in Manchester and its Ugandan-Asian community. Henry Hobson, the shoemaker, is now Hari, the tailor (Tony Jayawardena), but the details of the story remain the same. Hari is late. Hari does not understand this new generation. Is Hari about to push his daughters one step too far?
Royal Exchange Theater, Manchester, until July 6

Three of the best … dance shows
Birmingham Royal Ballet: [Un]leash
The world of ballet has intensified over the last decade, while the outcry over its lack of female choreographers has grown. Here, the Birmingham Royal Ballet is doing its part for gender parity with a triple bill that includes the talented Ruth Brill, alongside Didy Veldman and Jessica Lang.
Hippodrome Birmingham, Wednesday 12 to 15; Sadler's Wells, EC1 June 25 and 26
No Woman's Land
Spanish choreographer Avatâra Ayuso creates an unusual duet with the elder Inuk Naulaq LeDrew. The two men explore stories about their lives, their homelands – the sunny Mediterranean and the icy Canadian Arctic – and their migration experiences. As part of the festival Origins Crossing Borders.
The Place, WC1, Friday 14th to 15th June
Margot Fonteyn: a celebration
Britain's most adored ballerina, the former artist known as Peggy Hookham, is reported to have celebrated her 100th birthday last month. The Royal Ballet pays tribute to his prima ballerina badoluta with excerpts from certain roles made famous by Fonteyn.
